Our Story

In 2013, two brothers with mad skills in the kitchen—Jason and Brian Lees—decided to share their passion for bold Southern flavors and crazy big portions with the world and Roux 61 was born.

Our first location in Natchez, Mississippi quickly became a regional culinary favorite and now hungry foodies travel across state lines to experience “what everyone has been raving about,” only to return time and again for the quirky-cool atmosphere and belly-rubbing deliciousness that elevates each dish from good to “good lawd!”

Now with our second location in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, we’re one step closer to bringing the yummy-good flavors of the South to everyone’s mouth. Curious? Come by and let our Roux Crew serve you some of the finest food (and coldest beer) you’ve ever experienced.
